This article notes that non-native entry-level speakers in the cyber world often make unique utterances that are not only ungrammatical under any adequate grammar of English formality but also communicative in their actual use. Based on this observation, I assume that their utterances reflect their mental representation of linguistic competence and, therefore, the so-called ungrammatical utterances must be understood as an amalgamation of the native syntax and the English vocabulary. I also suggest that linguistic competence does not depend on a 2D structure, and it, rather, relates to a fully elaborated 3D molecular structure that has a great variety of information-images. It is also noted that the linguistic world in the mental representation within Wernicke's Area needs to be accounted for in relation to Einstein's Relativity Theory, since the relationship between time, space, and movement can be understood with the aid of relative concepts rather than absolute concepts. Finally, I note that there is an analogy between the linguistic process in an act of speech and the computational process in a work of computation.
